Rooney: Welbz is a Manchester lad so it's weird seeing him at Arsenal

November 22, 2014

Ahead of United’s game against Arsenal, and Danny Welbeck’s first match against his boyhood club, Wayne Rooney has discussed his former teammate’s start to life in London.

Of course, Danny has been here all of his life. He is a Manchester lad so it is weird seeing him [there]. But that’s football nowadays and players move on. I think, for Danny, and for his own personal career, it was probably the best move for him. He’s done great and scored a few goals and is playing well. Danny gives you what he always gives you – a good shift. He works hard for the team. At times, as I said to him, he works a bit too hard but he’s scoring goals and he’s doing well.
